If DNS is setup incorrectly, over time your mail server IP will be added to blacklists. Nowadays most E-Mail servers have some kind of spam protection service which in turn means that all your inbound mail will be blocked if you do happen to be listed on a spam blacklist. In this article I will describe how to correctly configure your MX and reverse DNS records for your mail server. This article is based on an Exchange 2003/2007 server but every other messaging server will follow the same principle. Assigning an IP address Starting from the bottom up the first thing you need to do is assign a static external IP address to the internal private address of your mail server. You will need to apply these rules on your firewall to port forward SMTP (port 25) and NAT an external IP address to the internal address of the server. Something that a lot of administrators forget to do or check is to set the outgoing NAT rule to use the same external IP address created for the inbound rule to the mail server. If this isn’t set, Reverse DNS will not match and in turn your mail server will…

Technology is becoming increasingly necessary and crucial for the business world. It does not matter what type of business we're talking about – everyone, from huge multinational corporations to small business run from home, uses computers now to get the jobs done. Bookkeeping, accounting, orders, shipping and receiving, financial records, customer and client records, product lists and catalogs, and more are all stored on computers and that makes those computers and the data contained on them critical components of any size enterprise's day to day operating. But computers are not infallible. They are subject to crashes, so smart business owners make sure to back up their data in case something like that happens, whether they use an external hard drive or a stack of disks to get the job done. Unfortunately, while that is an important step to take in making sure your business is secure, those external drives and disks are still potentially not secure enough – if a disaster, be it man made or natural, occurs, then not only can the computer itself be ruined, so can those backup drives and storage discs. And that's why disaster recovery is extremely important for companies both large and small. "Disaster…

While many parts of your computer can be replaced to bring it back to normal, the myth that your hard drive recovery can be as simple as replacing certain components is only partially true. If you've experienced a crash, then you can understand the desperation many people go through when trying to find a cheap solution to recover the data. Even though the logic board replacement and platter fix solution is not free, some people attempted to have this service done to save lost data and recover important files on their hard disk. First, it's been reported that efficient clean rooms cost companies hundreds of thousands of dollars. It's safe to say that your local hardware component technician does not have the available funds to provide a clean room for their customers. The first error in this myth is that whoever claims to be able to fix hard drives does not necessarily open them in a safe, uncontaminated room like they should do. While you may consider this a viable fix for your broken drive, consider our article on clean room and its specification before attempting to have the platters or logic board replaced. Now, there are several refurbished sites…

"I think I scared him off!" Gosh, that's never something you want to say about a man you actually like, is it? As much as you want to believe that he's actually as busy as he says he is, your heart is telling you that he's been absent because you came on too strong. What did you do?

Protein supplements have blossomed into a multibillion dollar industry as people have flocked into health food stores in search of the best post-workout nutrition options. Although I do recommend a protein supplement in some situations and I in fact use one myself, a childhood favorite may actually yield better results. Chocolate milk, with its unique blend of simple sugars, whey and casein protein, Vitamin D and calcium, and fats provides your body with a complete post-workout option that actually tops many leading protein powders. Why it Works Simple Sugars Usually I advise people to stay away from simple sugars that digest extremely quickly, but after a tough workout, you have a small window of opportunity to keep simple sugars that your body can actually use. When you exercise, your body is pulling on its available energy and your muscles are sustaining very small amounts of damage. You know that your body needs high quality protein to repair your muscles, but it also needs energy – energy that has seriously been depleted. When you ingest simple sugars like those found in chocolate milk, you're providing your body with the immediate energy it needs to recover and begin repairing your muscles. High…

After a serious accident that involves trauma to the brain, it is often necessary for a patient to undergo cognitive skills retraining. This is a therapeutic process with the goal of improving memory, attention span, organization, problem solving and decision making skills. In some cases, the goal of the retraining will be a complete recovery while in other more severe situations the goal will be more modest, perhaps just to return the person to a functional state and improve their quality of life. Cognitive skills retraining programs must be individually designed to address the patient's shortcomings. It must be embarked in stages as they progress towards recovery. The results of each stage will indicate how far the training can be taken and how complete the recovery will be. As with all forms of cognitive training, it is important that it is done in a way that the patient will be able to transfer newly relearned skills from the clinical setting back to their home. Improvements and positive results are only worthwhile if they can be repeated in a real world setting. One of the basic keys to retraining is repetition. Relearning a skill by doing it again and again is…
